Member, taoeUM Proa Member Audit Bureau Circulation Today's Roundup By MALCOLM EPLEY THE soldiers who are here with the "Here's Your Infantry" show want the public to see their demonstration. They are particularly anxious that it be viewed by that portion ot the public which is nnathetic about the war ana . wi the Seventh War Loan. They believe their show will sell bonds, not simply on the basis of bond purchases for admission to the event, but through the psychological ef fect it has on observers. Its two striking phases preparation for battle, and an attack on a Jap pillbox draw the spectator into the battle. Thev have the effect of iden tifying him with the men who EPLEY carry on bitter combat in his behalf. The result of all that is to make him a strong supporter of the war effort, and therefore a bond buyer. The question today, on the eve of the show, Is whether the apathetic who need this lesson will be there to see the show. We have an idea a great many of them will be on hand, and we predict that the effect will be just what is promised by the infantry men who want to sell the war effort and war bonds to civilians. We suggest that every reader expose himself to this experience. The men who put on the show deserve a chance to convince. e e Elect-ion Month IT is time for all of us to realize this Is an important election month. In Klamath county, five elections will be held in June. They include: June 18 City elementary school district elec tion, county unit school district election. June 22 State special election, city special election. June 25 Klamath Union high school district election. A number of important issues of a financial nature are up for determination at these elections, and several school district directors will be chosen. We suspect that even many conscientious citizens have let this situation creep up on them without much thought for the decisions to be made. From here on out, we will try to take care of several reminders in the form of discussion and informative articles. e e o Nightmarish HERE'S a nightmarish thought for the WRA: Suppose the Japs do succeed in sending crew-carrying balloons over the ocean, and these crews begin parachuting to earth on the. west coast. What will that do to the present policy of permitting Japanese-Americans to return to their west coast homes? During the exclusion period, any Japanese found on the west coast was suspect. It would have been almost impossible for a spy, saboteur, plane or balloon crew member of Japanese blood to get around without being singled out. But now, with many Japanese-Americans per mitted to go at will in the coast area, a Jap foe could get away with posing as something else, or might not be questioned. If the Jap balloon menace, which now seems fantastic, develops into something real, it would certainly make the exclusion revocation pre mature. What if the WRA had to start evacuation all over again? News Behind The News By PAUL MALLON WASHINGTON, June 5-Great as the bomb damage to Japan is, it is nothing to what is coming. Our definite plans call for dropping two-and- one-half times the bomb tonnage upon Japan In the next year that we dropped ou Germany the last year of the European war. We have hardly begun. The damages wrought already, have been widely destructive only in Tokyo. The capital has had a full dose. But at Yokohama and through the other major cities, we have worked upon certain industrial targets, rather than the cities as a whole, and the results aro nowhere yet comparable to what we did in Germany. The question asked everywhere is whether we can reasonably hope to bring peace in the Pacific from this air attack, or whether we will have to continue the slow process of fighting for' more and more footholds from which to drive a land invasion to a successful conclusion, as in Germany. Frankly, there Is no solid evidence upon which to hang hopes for surrender from bombing. oooe Wotch Business Class THERE seems to be Just one slim chance that we might get it. The Japanese business class is nowhere near as firmly under the thumb of the military as were the industrialists of Germany. Hitler had his producers and all people completely under control. Japanese business leaders may see what hap pened to all industrial plant structures in Germany, contemplate the two-and-a-half times as much weight, wnicn iney are going tu nui, overthrow their government and surrender con riitinnaiiv while thev have a few plants left To date there have been no feelers from them. No Japanese development (particularly not these cabinet changes) warrants any aeinv ite exDectation. As far as the cabinet is concerned, the Jap military people are merely handing portfolios around to bolster public commence in a losing leadership, without the slightest diminution of their administrative power. e e i Phychological Beating PSYCHOLOGICALLY, the Japs are taking their air beatings about the same way the Germans did. As long as the attacks were scattered and therefore not apparent to the whole country, they said very little about them. But when Tokyo was largely destroyed they opened their radios and told practically the whole story. The nazis decided similarly that people react angrily to bombings, and in major instances, which are impossible to conceal from the coun try anyway, it is just as well to tell the people and get some advantage from their generated wrath. No nation to date has been bombed into surrender. First attacks of this new military nature in Spain were accounted of secondary importance. The Germans magnified the scope a hundred times, finally with rockets. But failed, in Britain. Some of our air enthusiasts thought we could bring the nazis to their knees that way and publicly promised such a result if they could get enough planes. They got twice as many planes as they originally said they needed, and more, yet a severe land invasion had to be pushed to the final possible niche before sur render came.

He mentioned these factors in the order of im portance he ascribed to them: 1 Lack of fuel, both oil and gasoline to operate the tanks and planes; 2 Destruction of the railway system (the greatest accomplish ment of our air force); 3 Germany's loss of raw material areas such as Romania, and 4 Smashing of the home industrial sections such as Silesia and Saxony by air attacks. Three of these four Influences were the sole results of bombings. Air enthusiasts could rightly claim that their work was indispensible to the defeat of Germany, if not the major cause. With our navy cutting off shipping from the relatively small Japanese island mainland and our bombers doing more than twice as much damage to it, as was done in Germany, results will be certainly swifter and perhaps more de cisive in the Pacific. Yet, note that we have been two months at Okinawa. Indeed,. Japs are still resisting east of Manila in the Philippines. At neither place did their original force get in any more sup plies than it possessed at the start. No men or materials have, gone through to them and there is no chance that they will get any. But on Okinawa they had accumulated en:h artillery ammunition and supplies to last three months, and they may last it al though the back of their resistance is already broken. This is no easy war in the Pacific. From Other Editors V. S. 99 vs. U. S. 97 (The Oregonian) The Oregon highway commis sion officially has approved des ignation of United States high way 99, the Pacific highway leading to California via Rose burg, Grants Pass, Medford and Ashland, as an interregional route. The campaign originat ing in Klamath Falls to get that designation for United States 97, the Willametto highway, was not successful. The smoke raised by the southern Oregon con troversy has obscured the fact that as yet no federal funds have been appropriated for the interregional highway program. A special committee appoint ed by President Roosevelt draft ed the master plan for a net work of interregional routes over the nation, and for Oregon tentatively designated the Pa cific and Columbia highways. The federal bureau of public roads submitted the program to congress, which has not yet act ed. The plan calls for allocation of $750,000,000 in federal funds each year for about 15 years separate from regular match money. The amount of state par- wmpanon nas not Deen suggest ed. Objects of the program are to provide postwar employment and to eliminate national and regional bottlenecks for military and commercial movements. When and if congress ap proves the interregional high way program, Oregon doubtless will be required to adopt legis lation authorizing limited free ways, if it is to participate. The highway commission indorsed such legislation in the 1945 as s e m b 1 y, but the bill failed. Twenty-three states have laws authorizing construction of routes to which access is limit ed. The interregional routes must be uniformly of higher standard than other federal aid projects a two-lane highway, for instance, requiring 24 feet of pavement and a 10-foot grav el shoulder on each side. The $36,000,000, three-year state-federal program for Ore gon highways launched this week by commission contracts will not be affected in any way by designation of the Pacific highway as interregional, . and the Willamette route has not been neglected in this The feuding from opposite sides of the Cascade range certainly "u une eiieci (inougn we wouldn't go so far as to say it was prearranged by the dis putants). It hat rnnmnlroloj public and perhaps commission attention on both southern Ore gon highways, and blacked out the needs of other major routes. Someone ought to stir up a good fight over the Columbia water grade. ' com " ' i "You mis-icd your calling.
